| miller | 1. One who keeps or attends a flour mill or gristmill. 2. A milling machine. 3. <zoology> A moth or lepidopterous insect; so called because the wings appear as if covered with white dust or powder, like a miller's clothes. Called also moth miller. The eagle ray. The hen harrier. Miller's thumb. <zoology> A small fresh water fish of the genus Uranidea (formerly Cottus), as the European species (U. Gobio), and the American (U.

| Miller-Abbott tube | A tube with two lumens, one ending in a small collapsible balloon and the other in a metallic tip with numerous perforations; used for intestinal decompression. Synonym: Abbott's tube. (05 Mar 2000) |
| miller fisher syndrome | <syndrome> A syndrome characterised by total external ophthalmoplegia, cerebellar ataxia, and loss of tendon reflexes. Early symptoms include fever, headache, and pneumonia. They are followed by facial paralysis, diplopia, and paresthesia of the arms and trunk. It is sometimes viewed as a variant of guillain-barre syndrome. (12 Dec 1998) |
| miller's asthma | Asthma caused by flour or grain allergens. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Miller's chemicoparasitic theory | That dental caries is caused by microorganisms of the mouth fermenting dietary carbohydrates and producing acids that demineralise the teeth. (05 Mar 2000) |

| Mariotte's experiment | An experiment in which one looks fixedly with one eye (the other being closed), at a black dot on a card, on which is also marked a black cross; as the card is moved to or from the eye, at a certain distance the cross becomes invisible but appears again as the card is moved further; this proves the absence of photoreceptors where the optic nerve enters the eye.

| control experiment | An experiment used to check another, to verify the result, or to demonstrate what would have occurred had the factor under study been omitted. See: control, control animal. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Scheiner's experiment | A demonstration of accommodation; through two minute holes in a card, separated from each other by less than the diameter of the pupil, one looks at a pin; at a short distance from the eye the pin appears double; as it is moved from the eye a point is found where it appears single, and beyond which it remains single for the emmetropic eye, but for the myopic eye it soon again becomes double.

| hershey-chase experiment | <molecular biology> A landmark experiment done in 1952 which showed that DNA is the hereditary material. The experiment, done by Martha Hershey and Alfred Chase, involved allowing a bacteriophage which contained DNA labelled with 32P (an isotope of phosphorus) and a protein labelled with 35S (an isotope of sulphur) to attach to some bacteria. When the bacteriophages were later removed, they found that it was the 32P (and thus the DNA) that had entered the bacterial cells rather than the 35S (indicating the protein). (09 Oct 1997) |
| pulse-chase experiment | An experiment in which an enzyme, a metabolic pathway, a culture of cells, etc., interacts with a brief addition (pulse) of a labelled compound followed by its removal and replacement (chase) by an excess of unlabelled compound. (05 Mar 2000) |
